Bob Dylan 1961 Handwritten Lyrics To Be Auctioned
. ![]() (SHC) Nate D. Sanders Auctions have announced that they will be auctioning original handwritten lyrics by music legend Bob Dylan this Thursday, March 30, 2017. We were sent the following details, and the lyrics: The lyrics were written for an unpublished song about Wisconsin. Dylan had a special connection with Wisconsin. He went to camp there as a child and briefly lived in Madison in 1960 after dropping out of the University of Minnesota in May that same year. Dylan was determined to make a name for himself in Madison, which was one of the hotspots for folk music at the time. He played at various clubs, but didn't make a major impression. Dylan moved to New York City in January 1961 and signed a recording contract with Columbia Records in October. He penned these original handwritten lyrics in November 1961 and gave them to Peter Crago, a fellow New York musician and roommate. The lyrics come with a certificate of authenticity from music dealer Roger Epperson. Bidding for the lyrics begins at $30,000. The lyrics are an ode to the Badger state.
